1. A compound of the formula (I): ##STR10## wherein X1 and X2 each independently represents lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
2. A pharmaceutical composition for treating antidepressant, which contains as an active ingredient a compound as claimed in claim 1 together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor.
3. A pharmaceutical composition for treating aftereffects of cerebrovascular impairments, which contains as an active ingredient a compound as claimed in claim 1 together with pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor.

The present invention relates to novel piperidine derivatives having pharmaceutically useful activities such as antidepressant and antiischemic activities and to a process for the preparation thereof.

Recently, an increasing number of medicines for treating conditions or diseases caused by cerebral dysfunction or cerebral organic disorders including the disturbance of consciousness, disturbance of memory, dysgnosia, and various types of dementia have been developed. Examples of such medicine include consciousness disturbance improving agents, psychotropic agents, anti-, dementia agents, and the like. The present inventors have already developed and disclosed carbamoyl pyrrolidone derivatives effective on senile dementia (EP-A-0304330) and tetrahydropyridine derivatives having psychotropic activity (EP-A-0445701).

The present inventors have made a continuous and intensive research with the purpose of developing novel compounds that have the following properties:

(1) a potent inhibitory activity against re-uptake of serotonin;

(2) a potent ability to suppress or inhibit the delayed necrosis of neuronal cells; and

(3) less or negligible enzyme induction. These properties will be explained in detail below.

(1) It has been well known that compounds capable of inhibiting the uptake of serotonin exhibit antidepressant activity (J. Clin. Psychiatry, 55: 3, March 1992). Thus, certain known antidepressants such as imipramine and amitriptyline are capable of inhibiting the amine pump responsible for the re-uptake of serotonin, which is released from the end of serotonergic nerves of central nervous system, by a neuroterminal, thereby increasing the serotonin concentration in the synaptic cleft.

(2) Cerebral ischemia is a local anemia of extremely high degree found in brain. Cerebral tissues placed under an ischemic condition often lead to dysfunction and, if the condition lasts, it would bring about the denature and necrosis of cells.

(3) In the clinical treatment with medicines, a gain in liver weight is observed following the administration of a medicine. This is due to the increase in the number of smooth surfaced endoplasmic reticulum (SER) in hepatic microsomes, which contains a series of enzymes participating in the drug metabolism. Thus, the administration of a medicine can stimulate the enzymatic activity which results in induction of enzymes responsible for the metabolism of drugs and shorten the term during which the medicine can exert its effect. The relationship between the enzyme induction and pharmacological and chemical structural features of a medicine has not been elucidated.

The present inventors, in view of the foregoing circumstances, have intensively studied and found that certain piperidine derivatives have the above-mentioned desirable properties, that is, (1) a potent inhibitory activity against the re-uptake of serotonin; and (2) a potent ability to suppress or inhibit the delayed necrosis, of neuronal cells, and (3) less or negligible enzyme induction.

Thus, the present invention provides a compound of the formula (I): ##STR2## wherein X1 and X2 each independently represent lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The compounds of the present invention can be prepared, for example, by the process consisting of the following steps: ##STR3## wherein X1, X2 are as defined above and R represents an amino-protecting group, is reduced, or ##STR4## wherein X1, X2, and R are as defined above, is allowed to react with a trialkylsilane such as Et3 SiH in the presence of an acid such as a Lewis acid, trifluoroacetic acid, and the like and, if necessary, deprotected to obtain a compound of the formula: ##STR5## wherein X1 and X2 are as defined above, which is then allowed to react with 1-{3-(chloropropyl)carbamoyl}-2-oxopyrrolidine to obtain the ultimate compound of the formula (I). Accordingly, another object of the present invention is to provide a process for preparing the compound of the formula (I).

The compounds of the invention, which include the compounds of the formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are extremely useful for the therapeutical treatment of depressant, dementia, and aftereffects of cerebrovascular disorders with negligible or only little reduction of therapeutical activity when it is administered continuously for a long term.

The following Experiments have been conducted to demonstrate the pharmacological activities of the compounds of the present invention.

PAC (1) Evaluation of Effects on Neurotransmittal Systems {3 H} Serotonin (5-HT) Uptake Inhibition Test

Compound (a): a compound of the present invention

Compound (b): 1-[3-{4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-piperidin-1-yl}propylcarbamoyl]-2-oxopyrrolid in (Japanese Patent Publication (KOKAI) No.131155/1989).

Male Slc: Wistar strain rats (12-week-old, Japan SLC).

Rats were killed by decapitation and a whole brain except for cerebellum is isolated immediately. The isolated tissue was homogenized in 20 volume of ice-cold 0.32 M sucrose solution by Potter-type homogenizer and centrifuged at 1,000× g for 10 min. The supernatant is centrifuged at 40,000× g for 20 min. The resultant pellet is resuspended in 20 volume of Krebs-Henseleit buffer containing 1 mM ascorbate, 0.17 mM EDTA and 0.08 mM pargyline by Polytron and centrifuged at 40,000× g for 10 min, which procedure was repeated two more times. The finally obtained pellet was resuspended in 20 volume of ice-cold Krebs-Henseleit buffer using Polytron. The resultant suspension was diluted to 1/10 with the same buffer to give a synaptosome sample.

A mixture of 5 nM [3 H]5-HT (10 μl), synaptosome sample (480 μl ) and a solution (10 μl ) containing a test compound at a predetermined concentration was incubated for 5 min at 37°C The reaction was stopped by diluting the mixture with ice-cold Krebs-Henseleit buffer (2.5 ml) and filtering with suction on Whatman GF/C paper. The filter paper was washed three times with ice-cold Krebs-Henseleit buffer (2.5 ml each) and allowed to stand for about 18 hr in Cleasol-1 solution (5 ml). The radioactivity was then measured by means of a liquid scintillation counter. A control experiment was carried out in the same manner as the above using 5 nM [3 H]5-HT (10 μl ), synaptosome sample (480 μl ) and a solvent (10 μl ) used for dissolving a test compound to obtain blank values of radioactivity.

The IC50, the concentration of the test compound expressed in μM required to inhibit the uptake of [3 H]5-HT by 50%, was calculated from a graph on which the uptake of [3 H]5-HT by synaptosomes (radioactivity) is plotted on the ordinate and the concentration (in logarithm) of the test compound on the axis. Results are shown in Table 1 below.

Table 1 shows that compound (a), the compound of the present invention, has much more potent serotonin uptake inhibitory activity compared to compound (b), a known compound, which demonstrates that the compound of the invention has an antidepressant activity.

Inhibitory effect against the delayed necrosis of hippocampus CAI pyramidal cells was determined.

Compound (a) and compound (b) were again used in this experiment. Three to eight male mice (Mongolian gerbil, 11 to 12-week-old, Seiwa Jikken-dobutsu Kenkyusyo) were used for one group.

Each animal was intraperitoneally administered a solution of the test compound (a) or (b) dissolved in distilled water, or only distilled water (for control) at 0.2 ml/100 g weight of the animal. Thirty minutes later, under the halothane anesthesia, bilateral common carotid artery was separated from surrounding tissues and ligated for a period of 5 min with Sugita's artery Klemme. Anesthesia was stopped at the time of artery occlusion. On the 4th day after the operation, each animal was anesthetized with pentobarbital Na (45 mg/kg), and brain was perfused with 4% paraformaldehyde solution and removed. From the brain was prepared a piece of cerebral preparation containing hippocampus. It was placed in Carnoy's fixative overnight for fixation and embedded in paraffin, from which sliced coronal preparations of 10 μm thick were prepared. Each cerebral preparation was stained with hematoxylin-eosin and the rate of injury (%) in pyramidal cell layer extending from paramedian to CA4 was observed using two-dimensional image analyzer (Cosmozon IS, Nicon). Results are shown in Table 2 below.

The table 2 above shows that compound (a), the compound of the invention, compared to compound (b), a known compound, significantly inhibited the delayed necrosis of hippocampus CAI pyramidal cells in mouse (Mongolian gerbil) due to the cerebral ischemia at the dosage of 12.5 and 25 mg/kg and completely inhibited at the dosage of 50 mg/kg.

Male mice (DS, 5-6 week-old) received intraperitoneally 100 mg/kg of the compound (a) of the present invention or the compound (c) (1-[3-}4-(3,4,-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropiperidin-1-yl}propylcarb amoyl]-2-oxopyrrolidine) suspended in 5% gum arabic once a day for three days. After 24 hrs from the final administration, the liver was removed from the animal, and liver microsome was prepared by means of centrifugal fractionation. Additional liver microsomes were prepared in the same manner as above by intraperitoneally administering a typical enzyme inducer, phenobarbital (dissolved in saline) or β-naphthoflavone (suspended in sesame oil), to mice. Enzymatic activities of the above liver microsomes on drug metabolism were evaluated by determining their 7-alkoxycumarin-O-dialkylase activities. The test results are shown in Table 3.

Apparent from Table 3, the mouse liver which received the compound (c) for three days increased its enzymatic activity on drug metabolisms. Specifically, demethylation activity increased 1.61 times, while deethylation and depropylation activities increased 1.99-2.20 times as compared with the control. Similar increasing pattern was also observed in the group treated with β-naphthoflavone, a typical enzyme inducer. On the other hand, the mouse liver which received the compound (a) showed substantially the same enzymatic activity on drug metabolism as the control. Thus, no enzyme induction was observed in the compound (a), while the compound (c) possesses a carcinogenic enzyme induction of β-naphthoflavone type (3-methylcholanthrene type).

As is understood from the test results given above, the compound of the present invention possesses a potent antidepressant activity and the inhibitory activity against the necrosis of neuronal cells, with less or negligible side effect of enzyme induction.
